Am presently watching this version of Nicholas Nickleby, my fave Dickens, and this movie is awesome. Nathan Lane is killing me.

Everything's better with Nathan Lane.

(Okay, except The Producers -- it was damned funny but Zero Mostel is still the Max Bialistock of record.)

I have to admit that I'm rather fond of the stage version done by the Royal Shakespeare Company that they filmed back in 1982.

My daughter, along with fifty-something other seven-to-eighteen year-olds, will be participating in Nicholas Nickleby on stage next year.

She's in the middle of Macbeth right now.

Gay? I think of it as more . . . incestuous. The relationship between Nicholas and Kate and Smike . . . I dunno, it just creeps me out. A bizarre love triangle. Someone should write a story . . . Hmm. That gives me an idea . . .
